I designed the cover art for a new podcast "What Works: The Future of Local News" hosted by former Boston Globe editor Ellen Clegg and Northeastern University journalism professor Dan Kennedy. The podcast, found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Audible, and other major podcast providers, focuses on the future of local journalism — what Clegg and Kennedy deem the "bedrock of democracy."
I iterated and reiterated the design multiple times, presenting them with several different designs and accepting feedback before settling on the finished art. I wanted to focus on the mobile and interactive aspects of modern news, emphasizing how the ever-changing technological advances of the industry can sometimes stunt local news organizations that don't have the resources to keep up and keep updated.
